HAIR: RICI CURL SYSTEM

RICI CURL: SPLASH SHAMPOO, DRENCH CONDITIONER, THIRSTY STYLING GEL, VELVET SMOOTH SERUM & MEMORY SETTING SPRAY

My hair is curly 98% of the time (I may straighten it one day in the winter when it temps dip below freezing) and if there is a curly hair product out there, I use it. It's no secret that I have my "go-to curl faves" but I still test & use other curl products out there. One line I was interested in trying was RICI Curls. Founded by salon owner Ricky Pennisi, these five products work together to help you achieve beautiful curls. When I test curl products, I look to see if it softens my hair as I wash and that my thirsty hair is hydrated when I condition. Otherwise, I will have a pretty hard time with detangling since I don't wash it daily. 

RICI CURL PRODUCT LINE

I skipped washing my hair all weekend just to test RICI Curl and lets just say that my hair wasn't in the best shape for a before picture (seriously, it wasn't!) I must say that the five-step product line passed my approval test, smelled amazing and left my curls fresh, hydrated & frizz-free. The 5-step process is as follows: Shampoo, Condition, Style, Set and Finish. Take a look at my curls: 

RICI Splash Shampoo ($20 60 oz. / $30 32 oz.) Sulfate-free moisturizing formula that cleanses without drying. 

RICI Drench Conditioner ($25 16 oz. / $37.50 32 oz) Versatile, sulfate-free conditioner with multiple uses. Can be used in the shower or as a leave-in conditioner and curl refresher when added to water in a spray bottle. 

RICI Thirsty Styling Gel ($15 8 oz. / $25 16 oz) Designed to seal the cuticle, controls frizz, defines and enhances curls. Thirsty Styling Gel is the foundation of the RICI styling products.

RICI Memory Setting Spray ($15 8 oz. / $25 16 oz) Perfect for locking in your curl, while holding your style in place and shielding against frizz. I used it on my hair while it was still wet after applying the Thirsty Styling Gel. 

RICI Velvet Smooth Serum ($15 3.4 oz.) The ultimate in frizz control and shine. All you need is a pea-sized amount from the mid shaft (avoid your roots) to ends. I tend to stay away from frizz serums as I find that my hair gets the opposite desired effect when used with other styling products. This worked beautifully! 

Even the black and white (my fave combo) box was stunning!
